Lyrics

Al ways see it on T.

or read it in the mag a zines, ce leb ri ties that want sym pa thy.

All they do is piss and moan in side the Roll ing Stone, (G5)talk ing a bout how hard life can be.

I’d like to see them spend a week liv in’ life out on the street.

I don’t think they would sur vive.

If they could spend a day or two walk ing in some one else ’s shoes I think they’d stum ble and they’d fall.

They would fall,

(CN.C.)fall.

(D)Life styles of the rich and the fam ous.

They’re al ways com (G5)plain ing, al ways com (D5)plain ing.

If mon ey

is such a prob lem, well they got man sions, think we should (D5)rob them.

Did you know when you were fam ous you could kill your wife?

And there’s (E5)no such thing as twen ty five to life as (G5)long as you got the cash to pay for Coch ran.

And did you know if you were caught and you were smok ing crack, Mc (E5)Don ald’s would n’t ev en want to take you back?

You could (G5)al ways just run for May or of D.

(D5)Life styles of the rich and the fam ous.

They’re al ways com (G5)plain ing, al ways com (D5)plain ing.

If mon ey

is such a prob lem, well, they got man sions, think we should (D5)rob them,

(CN.C.)rob them,

rob them.

They would fall,

(CN.C.)fall.

(D5)Life styles of the rich and the fam ous.

They’re al ways com (G5)plain ing, al ways com (D5)plain ing.

If mon ey

is such a prob lem, you got so man y prob lems, think I can (D5)solve them.

Life styles of the rich and the fam ous.

We’ll take the (G5)clothes, cash, cars and homes, just stop com (D5)plain ing.

(G5)Life styles

of the (D5)rich and fam ous.

(G5)Life styles

of the (D5)rich and fam ous.

(G5)Life styles

of the (D5)rich and fam ous.
